My Favo(u)rite Ornament

I had to share deux photos of the following mani.. because.. I am really highly in like with this polish. Now, I have been sporting it for 5 days with a wealth of cleaning and dishes-doing in that time, so there is some tip wear and chippage.. but I still think it is very effective looking.

During my absence, I have not really been keeping up with the new collections.. and then I saw a photo of this polish (My Favo(u)rite Ornament by OPI.. I know.. I honestly could not type it without the 'u', I'm sorry.) and I knew I had to own it.

This is two coats with no undies.. yeah.. the coverage is that bad ass.

Even looking at them right now, I can easily tell you that these photos do not do this gem polish justice. I highly recommend it - especially for the upcoming holiday season. Seriously.

I just realized I still have a couple post photos stocked up. Sigh. I haven't even uploaded all that is currently living on my camera. The fear is real.

That is for another day. Mayhaps this weekend.

Until then.

I think I said it at some point on my blog, but I feel like 2017 is going to be the year that I constantly do faux marble nails. Note: not watermarbling. I have given in to that failed activity far too many times.

No, I mean the classy kind of marble. You know.

This time, I did it in reverse, because, why not?

It counts, right?

Ugh. I love it.

All right, that is all for today. See you all again soon (I promise).

My sole mission was to make the wounds look as gnarly and gooey as possible (when I sent my sister some behind the scenes photos, she liked the original look.. but I literally told her I opted to make them 'gooier' - legit scientific term)

Anytime I can destroy my polished nails to make wounds is a great day to me!
